It’s not going to be easy changing our ways, but we need to.
For many decades, most of America has seen itself as the
World’s Policeman. In today’s world, the price of that title has become too costly, in every sense of the word.
We have been hacking away in Afghanistan for over 19 years!!
We have very little to show for it in a material sense.
The Russians learned that same lesson back in the 1980’s.
More countries in that region need to step up and begin protecting themselves.
We’ve only had that mindset since 1941 (Dec). Before that, the average person would have been gobsmacked at the idea of the type of utter BS we’ve been involved in outside of our hemisphere.
We were warned back in the 1890s to not try to play the European game of empire and world policing. It drains the treasury, and gets you nothing but a permanent babysitting gig.
